Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 June 2026

Debate

Sporting Events Bill [HL]

Contribution

Amendments 42, 43, 45, 46, 49, 50, 52, and 53, tabled by the noble Baroness, Lady Bennett of Manor Castle, seek to prevent advertising for less-healthy food and drink and fossil fuels being displayed in a restricted advertising zone. I recognise the spirit of these amendments and the underlying ambition to help improve public health outcomes. That is why the Government are already taking action to tackle childhood obesity and reduce children’s exposure to the advertising of less-healthy food.
